Assassin's Creed: Odyssey is garnering positive reviews across the board and Ubisoft even poked fun at EA for controversial microtransactions. Are Ubisoft blameless in the whole story though, as they have MTX in a singleplayer game?
A fullscreen pop-up ad appeared in Assassin’s Creed Odyssey for some players this week.

The big note here is the built in ad-displays during gameplay and not that they happened. Start screen, cool. Gameplay? That shouldn't ever happen.
That's not a technical error. An ad can't be displayed mid-game without you creating the code/tech to make that possible first.

Nope.
I haven’t felt like I needed it yet, even if I did I’d never buy it, goes against evthg I believe in.
MTX has no place in SP games, especially if they affect gameplay.
“Player choice”? Let the 50% xp boost be enabled by default for easy difficulty, that’s player choice.
